I had tried it before with the same result, the copied image was taken from attempt through luci but it is odd to me that luci would enable 2.4GHz and not the other?
I am attempting try previous release again as i know it was working through the luci and to verify it through cli 5GHz was enabled and working.
Edited: I am not able to flash factory image now issue with the dual boot, either way I am not going to pursue any further troubleshooting this model, thanks for the tip.
There were bugs in the lantiq/xrx200 build for 24.10.1, so it cannot be built by the ASU server (and hence by any of the ASU clients, including Firmware Selector). You can build a 24.10.0 version or wait for the 24.10.2 version to come out.
Hello, i generally use the attended sysupgrade option in openwrt to download a custom image with all my packages and preserve my configs on upgrade.
While upgrading from 24.10.0 -> 24.10.1 my router could not connect to the internet with failures on pppoe interface.
When i compared the configs of the current with previous installations the only difference that i found was as shown in the image. left side is 24.10.1(not working) right side is 24.10.0(working):
I had to replace the full network config from 24.10.0 to get pppoe issues resolved.
Can anyone suggest why the differences were there after upgrade for the network config as shown? Looks like the settings were modified on upgrade somehow, which resulted in the pppoe issues.
Any clues would be helpful.
Thanks
Device: Xiaomi Mi Router 4A (100M International Edition V2)
Architecture: MediaTek MT7628AN ver:1 eco:2
Target Plattform: ramips/mt76x8
Firmware: OpenWrt 24.10.1 r28597-0425664679 / LuCI (HEAD detached at 2ac26e56) branch 25.103.51521~2ac26e5
I feel like the issue appears as soon as a certain amount of data is being sent because after running long enough (a week or so) or downloading a lot of stuff at once (currently downloading 120GB for a game) the Wifi crashes.
Good day, I want to ask: after restarting the router, for example, the number of transferred data for the entire period of operation until the restart is deleted. Then it starts again from zero. Is it possible to save it somewhere so that after the restart it can continue where it left off?. Thanks
Collected data is written to ram based temp storage by default. That is why info disappears with each reboot. It is a very bad idea to save a lot of data to the basic raw flash devices that a lot of the all in one router devices have. If your device has a hard drive, or nvme type drive, or a usb port that you can connect external storage designed for higher write cycles through, then you can change the config to save data there. I do. There may be opportunities to use a remote device via a mounted file share if you have a home server etc but I'm not positive. There is some info on how to do this in the wiki.
In addition to what @spence said, there's a package, luci-app-statistics, that can be installed to collect and retain statistics (that sort-of duplicates the standard "Status -> Realtime Graphs", but adds a lot more options and items). It has the ability to do periodic backups of the collected data so it is retained across reboots and upgrades. If you use it, be sure to read @atownlede's very thorough description of use and caveats at the link above.
I have two routers:
TP-Link AX23 ver. 1.2
Xiaomi Mi Router 4A Gigabit Edition ver. 1
The firmware versions I have tried are:
24.10.1
24.10.0
24.10.0-rc7
23.05.5
23.05.4
22.03.7
Out of all the firmware versions I tested on both routers, only version 24.10.0-rc7 does not have issues with "request timeout" when I run a ping test in CMD. The other versions always experience request timeouts every 10-15 seconds.
Ahh, you have to specify "major branch" version if you want to upgrade to next branch.
If you don't specify --version-to param, then upgrading is only done within same branch.
If you specify only a branch (i.e., a version number without the final “dot value”), then the version-to target is set to the latest release on that branch.
